TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa International Airport's Hiring Day event is back for another year, with almost two dozen employers looking to fill hundreds of positions ahead of this year's busy holiday season.
The airport-wide event will be from 9 a.m. to noon on Sept. 25. It will take place in the Main Terminal Event Space between the shuttle stations for Airsides E and F.
Various retail shops, restaurants, ground handling services and other businesses at TPA will be accepting applications for more than 320 positions. That includes Southwest Airlines, the Transportation Security Administration and Federal Express.
The Hillsborough County Aviation Authority, which operates TPA and Hillsborough County's three General Aviation airports, is also looking to fill several positions — particularly for highly technical maintenance personnel such as technicians and mechanics.
Some companies will be conducting on-site interviews and applicants could be hired on the spot. So, TPA is recommending that anyone looking for a job should bring two forms of identification to the event.
No RSVP is required. Free parking will be available in the Economy Parking Garage and participants can take the SkyConnect train to the Main Terminal for the event.
